  • Be a U.S. Citizen or U.S. National
  • Be at least 18 years of age
  • Have a High School Diploma or General Education Development (GED)
  • Pass a computerized assessment (pattern recognition and 2D/3D spatial reasoning)
  • Pass a medical evaluation (vision, hearing, and joint mobility exam)
  • Pass pre-employment drug test
  • Clearance: TSA Public Trust clearance is required - must successfully complete a TSA background investigation, including financial review.
  • Ability to work any day, Monday – Sunday, and any shift between 12:00 AM and 11:59 PM

Physical Demands:

  • Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds
  • Constant standing, lifting, twisting and bending.

Training

  • All selected TSO-BD candidates must successfully complete TSA-approved Behavior Detection certification training and maintain certification requirements in accordance with applicable TSA Standard Operating Procedures and operational guidelines.
  • Training includes classroom instruction, on-the-job training, certification examinations, recurrent training, and continuous professional development.
  • Selected Officers must maintain both checkpoint certifications and BD certification standards to remain qualified for assignment.

Compensation and Benefits

  • Anticipated pay range for this position is $37.03 – $38.84, determined based on years of service and certifications and in accordance with the applicable Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and/or Department of Labor Service Contract Act (SCA) wage determination.

We offer:
